ST. LOUIS – Drivers heading from Illinois into St. Louis overnight should be aware of ramp closures that could impact them Thursday.
Crews will close the ramp from westbound I-64 onto westbound I-44/southbound I-55 at the bridge over the Mississippi River (Poplar Street Bridge) (Exit 40B) for pavement repairs Thursday, February 12 from 7:30 p.m. until 5:30 a.m.
The ramp from WB I-64 to Walnut Street, the ramp from Spruce to WB I-44 and SB I-55 and one right lane on WB I-44/SB I-55 from Washington to Park will be closed during that time as well. The ramp to eastbound I-44 and westbound I-70 will remain open.
To detour around the closure, drivers can head north on EB I-44 to Washington Ave. (Exit 292), take the U-turn ramp there and continue southbound on I-55.
All work is weather permitting.
